War Between Nuclear Powers
When silence breaks with a siren's cry, And ash clouds darken the morning sky, Two nations rise with wrathful might, Blind to peace, prepared to fight. Where rivers flowed through fields so wide, Now burn with rage on either side. Flags once fluttered in monsoon air, Now mark the graves of young laid bare. The tanks roll in, the bombers fly, The missiles arc...

The other night Visiting in a dream a foreign land We waited in expectation The arrival of a group of alien dignitaries Somehow involved in guiding the culture. When they approached across the sound In a dark and rough hand-hewn canoe I ran out to take pictures Only to find a half dozen or so headless chickens Standing patiently in their effortlessly gliding...

Is the wind alive? That’s what the Choctaw believed. The Apache called it, apocryphally, “the breath of the world.” To them, the wind is the trickster you never see, a joker on the plain of life. What’s always arriving and always leaving? What’s as old as the world, yet forever current? Ever present and tireless, it seldom sleeps, holding up jets, herding...

My Powers
It’s night, and I’m tired at night. I don’t need to be powerful at night… If someone is lost or hurt, well, There must be other heroes out there. If I stay awake too long, I could so easily turn. So that I’ll see a group of people surrounding a cat in a tree. And they point to me and they...

I've noticed our Republic's RightWing Tree of Life reacts to root-systemic problems as if oak strong branches lifted to majesty worshiping heights of supremacy need not be concerned with watering and feeding democratic roots of nutrition nurture empowerment. Such behavior feels less intelligent than a sacred Tree of MotherEarth More like a gang of Bully Putin Pulpits and capital addicted Trumpian Puppets with boundlessly hungry eyes and upset stomachs Trying to feed from entitled...

The Truth Of Love And Its Awesome Powers Oft when dusk crawls on in its smells as freshly rotten leaves to some its dark its power is a wonderful joy as in those hearts that air spells its wickedness and evils sing.... But as shadows arrive and their powers display this heart sends up its wise alert flags and cries man the fort lad for battles will be waged.... As twinkling star spit down rays of speeding lights some hearts finds pleasure and joy for the darkness it destroys and the mind sees ravishing beauty in the...

Imaginary Friend
Tim was lonely as a child Tranquil, timid and quite mild He was considered as weird But that wasn't what he feared. He saw people that were dead Monsters hid under his bed Voices whispered in his brain Everyday he was less sane. Below the surface of his mind Something of sinister kind Started to control the boy Playing with him like a toy. It lied to...

Too much enlightenment with not enough empowerment depresses me to feel isolated and surrounded by self-impressed fools, like me or against me.

Why does everyone want to be with her? Mama fox whispered. Her kits were running toward the foreign two-legged. Not sure said Mama raccoon. But look at my cubs. They were parked at her feet, waiting for something. If the deer lets her fawn get close, she might be a faerie. A few seconds later Mama deer’s fawn ran toward...
